Chapter 808: Chapter 718: Seven Birds (Extra Chapter for Monthly Votes)

Mortal Realm.

Earth Immortal Spiritual Realm.

Fang Xi received the Storage Bag from the hands of the heterodox incarnation and first headed to the Taisui Meat Mountain in the west.

"Eat... eat more, and once you advance to the sixth rank, I won’t have to work so hard."

He threw a piece of elephant leg meat, as large as a mountain, onto the Meat Mountain.

Before long, countless white pieces of Spirit Ganoderma converged, burying the elephant leg meat...

For the Ancestral Demon Tree, the current Taisui Meat merely served to maintain its daily needs and could not expedite the rapid evolution of the Demon Tree.

After feeding the Taisui, Fang Xi then went to the base of the Demon Tree.

Whoosh, whoosh!

Rows of Qi Roots descended, suspending the meat of various ancient chaos beasts.

In mid-air, the pieces of meat quickly air-dried, as if they had turned into cured meat.

It didn’t take long for a piece of cured meat to even begin to sandify, exploding into dust without leaving a trace...

Fang Xi closed his eyes slightly, sensing the changes within the Earth Immortal Spiritual Realm.

After cultivating the Way of the Earth Immortal, as the master of the Spiritual Realm, he almost seemed like a creator, even capable of mobilizing Interface Power!

However, the Interface Power of the Earth Immortal Spiritual Realm was indeed somewhat weaker at this time...

It couldn’t compare to the Mortal Realm, let alone match the Earth Immortal Realm.

But Fang Xi believed that the Earth Immortal Spiritual Realm had endless potential; with continuous expansion over time, it would one day surpass the others!

’Someone is tracking me?’

Recalling the information given by the heterodox incarnation, he couldn’t help but sneer, "If they are capable, let them follow me to the Mortal Realm... "

"However, since they so brazenly seek death, let’s send them to their doom!"

"Once the Five Fires Seven Birds Fan is forged, I’ll just have to test its power."

Now that the heterodox incarnation had regained its freedom, it could come and go as it pleased within Sky Brahman City, and it wouldn’t matter if it disappeared for a while.

After all, an excuse as simple as going to the savage wilderness alone for exploration and chance could easily be used to cover up.

Even this same excuse could be used to steadily make the heterodox incarnation ’unexpectedly rich’!

After all, the unexplored savage wilderness was such that one might encounter serendipitous chances just by walking around!

One might even encounter an undiscovered Immortal Mansion!

Within the territories of the human race, although there are many former Dongfus and ruins, any chances that appear would surely be seized by major powers.

In this sense, Jin Gangzi’s pioneering of the Sky Brahman Domain was actually a good thing for many low-rank cultivators and individual cultivators!

...

The Nine States.

"Taoist Master!"

A Transcendent God bowed in front of Fang Xi.

For some reason, he always felt the Taoist Master had grown even more dignified recently, almost too intimidating to look at directly.

"Wanzang, rise!"

Fang Xi looked at the newly-ascended Transcendent God with a slight smile, his hands gesturing as if to help him up.

This ’Lord Wanzang’ used to be a cultivator from the Nine States who replaced Bai Mei to become the new ’Endless Treasury Keeper’, and was considered a genius among Nascent Souls.

He had finally succeeded in Transcending God!

To succeed in Transcending God in the Lower Realm and then ascend to the Earth Immortal Realm meant he possessed exceptional talent!

Of course, compared to Fang Immortal Taoist Master, he still fell short.

At times, Fang Xi wondered if his and Fang Immortal Taoist Master’s ascension had exhausted the fortune of the Nine States.

Following Lord Wanzang, three more Transcendent Gods emerged in the Nine States, making a total of six, each a big shot in their own field. But compared to the Nine States equipped with the Primordial Energy Particle Atlas, the rate was still a bit slow.

’But after all, the Nine States is a world with scarce resources, so it can’t be helped...’

Fang Xi considered that this issue was his own fault since he hadn’t embarked on new explorations since opening the Door of Ten Thousand Worlds last time.

As a result, the emergence of Transcendent Gods in the Nine States had been extremely challenging.

Even the four newly minted Transcendent Gods had benefited from the gains of following Fang Xi, Bai Mei, and Lord Ghost Axe as they broke through numerous Secret Realms...

’No matter how great the talent, resources are needed... that’s the reality of the Cultivation World!’

’Perhaps... it’s time to invest part of the power of the Treasures of All Heavens into this place, to have the Nine States plunder the myriad worlds for me?’

Fang Xi thought to himself, then waved his hand, "Let’s go... let’s meet Lord Ghost Axe."

It must be admitted, sometimes human power is limited.

Although he could no longer be considered ignorant in talisman forging, even combining the strengths of various schools, allowing him to design and forge various magical and spiritual treasures on his own, creating Spirit Communicating Treasures proved to be difficult.

Not to mention, the Five Fires Seven Birds Fan was an Immortal Mansion Rare Treasure, many of whose forging techniques and concepts were totally new to Fang Xi.

Fortunately, since obtaining the design schematics, the Nine States had been studying them continuously, and now the specific steps had been fully decoded.

Fang Xi and Lord Wanzang arrived at a colossal factory.

At this moment, both activated their arts separately; streams of Fire Formation Divine Light emerged, piercing straight through the Earth’s crust.

Heading downward, they entered an area of intense magma.

As they delved deeper, even phantoms of Poisonous Flood Dragons appeared within the magma...

"Ancient Earth Lung Poison Fire!"

Fang Xi expressed his amazement, "Only an environment like this could barely meet the forging requirements of the Five Fires Seven Birds Fan."

At this point, the magma’s temperature was extremely high, even the body shielding light covers of Yuan Ying True Monarchs would struggle to endure.

Fang Xi and Wanzang continued downwards, arriving atop a jade platform.

This jade platform released a terrifying chill; prohibition radiance flashed wildly, erecting an egg-shaped light cover to fend off the encroaching magma.

Above the jade platform, five Transcendent God cultivators sat cross-legged, with Lord Ghost Axe and Demon Exterminator notably among them.

"Taoist Master!"

Upon seeing Fang Xi approach, a group of Transcendent God cultivators hurriedly rose to their feet and paid their respects.

"Enough..."

Fang Xi’s gaze swept over the slightly younger faces of the Transcendent God lords, then turned to look at Lord Ghost Axe and Demon Exterminator.

These two Transcendent God lords were nearing two thousand years of age.

In the Lower Realm, that was the lifespan limit of a Transcendent God cultivator!

Fortunately, they had once followed Fang Xi in breaking through Changqingzi’s Earth Immortal Spirit Realm, gaining a large amount of Mother Qi of All Woods.

Coupled with pill recipes and such left by Changqingzi, they had successfully refined fifth-grade life-extending Spiritual Pills, which was why their lifespans were still abundant...

——Fang Xi had originally planned to take these fifth-grade life-extending Spiritual Pills to the Earth Immortal Realm for sale.

But, upon further thought, since the pills used Mother Qi of All Woods as an ingredient, there was a possibility that Changqingzi would discover some clue, so he gave up on the idea...

"Well then... let us begin!"

Seeing that all the Transcendent Gods were ready, Fang Xi nodded and formed a hand gesture.

A storage bag flew out and fell into the magma, opening at the mouth.

A large number of jade boxes appeared.

Chirp chirp!

The largest jade box burst into light, its prohibitions directly destroyed by the ancient Earth Lung Demon Flames, and suddenly there came a clear and loud phoenix cry!

A Five-colored Heavenly Phoenix smashed the jade box and flew out from within.

Next, a blue feather transformed into the phantom of a Kunpeng, manipulating wind and water, entangling and struggling with a Fire Dragon formed from ancient Earth Lung Demon Flames.

Shortly after, a Cloud-piercing Crane, an Azure Luan, as well as Peacock, Honghu, Blood Owl successively appeared...

The seven Spirit Birds shone with different lights, each bursting forth with various halos.

Yet among them, the Heavenly Phoenix was the strongest, and the other six Spirit Birds circled around its phantom, crying out as if a myriad of birds were paying homage to the phoenix!

"Truly worthy of being material of the Integration Level... not a wasted effort in obtaining them," Fang Xi remarked, infusing magic power into the jade platform.

Boom!

Terrible True Demon qi emerged, making the jade platform roar.

The other six Transcendent God lords too took action, the smaller jade boxes exploded open, revealing strange ores and special powders, Spiritual Flames...

"Use spirit to search for spirits, tools to refine tools, let nature take its course..."

Above the jade platform, prohibitions emerged one after another, like cages imprisoning the seven Spirit Birds within.

Fang Xi commanded coolly from the center.

"Screech!!"

The Blood Owl, seemingly the weakest yet the most greedy, suddenly opened its beak wide, swallowing a blood-red ore into its belly.

Its aura suddenly grew stronger by several measures and began absorbing countless light blue star-like ore powders...

"Rise!"

Seeing the Blood Owl’s aura steadily increasing, Lord Ghost Axe suddenly shouted.

Roar!

As magic power from the six great Transcendent Gods was injected, a dark green ancient Earth Lung Poison Dragon roared, catching up with the Blood Owl.

With just one grab, the phantom of the Blood Owl exploded into pieces.

Then came the Azure Luan, Peacock, Honghu...

These feather-transformed avian phantoms crazily chased after the ores, Spiritual Flames... refining them one by one, only to be torn apart and devoured by the ancient Earth Lung Demon Flames...

Chirp chirp!

The plumage of the White Crane transformed into a huge Cloud-piercing Crane, its illusory feathers trembling, sweeping out pure white Sword Light, like a Sword Array.

Boom!

The Sword Array collided with the dark green poison dragon, with countless Sword Qi bursting forth, seemingly about to dismember the Poisonous Flood Dragon!

"It’s not necessarily a good thing for the life-bound feathers to have such strong spirit. The difficulty of the refinement has increased quite a bit..."

Watching this scene, Fang Xi sat cross-legged, hands forming gestures.

Heavenly Spirit radiance flickered above his head, revealing a Nascent Soul with a mature-looking face, blackish-blue body, and two small horns.

The Nascent Soul held a Mysterious Dark Banner in its arms, with a crimson sword scar on its forehead.

At that moment, it giggled and spat out a stream of ’Six Paths Demon Flames’!

This ’Six Paths Demon Flames’ was already a sixth-grade Demon Fire, suddenly splitting into countless flames that each drilled into the body of the ancient Earth Lung Poison Dragon.

The ancient Earth Lung Poison Dragon let out a piercing howl, its size swelling tenfold in a moment, with its dragon horns branching out, and an inverse scale appearing on its chest, as if it truly transformed into a dragon!

The gigantic dragon pressed down with a claw, shattered the Crane’s Feather Sword Array, swallowed the Cloud-piercing Crane in one gulp, then set its sights on the Kunpeng, immense and born from the interaction of wind and water...

The Kunpeng, blue throughout and resembling both bird and fish, suddenly leapt, with countless blue storms sweeping out, entwining in battle with the ancient Earth Lung Poison Dragon...

Ten days later, the ancient Earth Lung Poison Dragon roared and finally tore the blue Kunpeng apart, swallowing its core.

At this moment, on the jade platform, a group of Transcendent God cultivators all had pale faces, seeming a bit drained of their primordial energy.

"Continue!"

Fang Xi’s Nascent Soul returned to its rightful place, and he stood up with a bang.

Snap!

With his hands forming gestures, the prohibitive cages opened and a Five-colored Heavenly Phoenix with a formidable aura burst out, continuing to fight with the Poison Dragon...

’This method of talisman forging is actually about letting the Seven Plumages each transform and seek minerals and gemstones to replenish themselves, and then converge one by one...’

’As long as I take down this Heavenly Phoenix, the forging will be successful for the most part...’

Fang Xi’s magic power surged out wildly, stirring Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy, rolling and descending...
